Smooth, straight walls and ceilings—ready for paint
Plastering Specialists
Good plastering is the difference between a room that looks “done”… and one that still looks unfinished after it’s painted. Clean lines, flat surfaces, crisp corners—it all starts with the prep and the skim.
At Maddocks’s Venetian Plastering, we bring the same attention to detail you’d expect from high-end finishes to everyday plastering work—so your walls and ceilings look sharp from every angle.
- Skimming & re-skimming for a smooth, paint-ready finish
- Repairs, patching & making good after electrical/plumbing work
- Meticulous prep for long-lasting results

FAQ
How soon can I paint after plastering?
Plaster needs to dry fully before painting. Drying time depends on thickness, airflow and temperature—once dry, start with a mist coat before your top coats.
Can you skim over old plaster or paint?
Often, yes—if the surface is sound and properly prepared. We’ll assess adhesion and recommend the most reliable approach.
Will it crack?
Small hairline cracks can happen as plaster dries, especially with poor airflow or heat. We focus on correct prep and application to reduce issues and deliver a durable finish.
Do you do small repair jobs?
Yes—patching, making good, and repairs after trades are common jobs. If you send photos, we can usually advise quickly.
